Trying on ski boots tonight, thinking about how I'm picking up the Celebrities with their newly-mounted bindings on Thurs...and of course, seeing the first flakes of the season falling RIGHT NOW. I NEED to ski!!!!!

I'm more mellow now that I got out for some honest turns. Maybe it's just the exhaustion talking, but I'd put my jones at a 5 or so right now...

All the TR and vids pushed me over a 9. Irrational exhuberance wore off and tamped it back down to an 8.4. Gonna go feel up my Coombas sitting here in the office. Bindings should be here by the weekend. Stoke.

At the time of the original post, big goose egg (0). Motorcycling on twisty roads keeps skiing out of mind.

Now, especially after I just dropped the skis off for a tune today and a few flakes coming down this past week, 7.

When it's too cold to ride 2 wheels (below 30F for me) and especially when I can't roll it out of the basement due to snowcover, it'll be a 10 (duh).

Solid 9. Took a nice long MTB ride today, but it's not having the same soothing effect. I'm ready to effin ski already. Last week was just a little taste, and the TRs and pics from Killington's opening are feeding the jones.

It's HERE folks! :spread:

11? Just waxed my skis! (Never did the end of season thing. I just a couple weeks ago ordered a ski vice, iron, etc. It's been a long time since I waxed my skis myself, since before college when I did it at home with my dad.)

3. Pretty mellow right now. Enjoying the last of my MTB season...

i'm glad i'm not alone. for some reason i'm not feeling it lately. between MTB, family activities, yard work and hectic job schedule i'm just not feeling the skiing cravings right now.

No kidding! :roll:

If I hadn't gotten in those turns last week I'd be feeling much different. I think that, combined with the fact that I still have boot issues to work through are making me not rush. 8)
